About Aiven

Aiven is the open source based data platform that builders trust to run PostgreSQL®, Apache Kafka®, ClickHouse®, OpenSearch®, Valkey™ and more in production, on any cloud. Builders ship faster. Their companies run on data that stays available, secure and under control.

The role

You own the commercial relationship with a book of existing Aiven customers across the UK & Ireland, worth more than $4m in ARR. Your job is to keep those customers, grow them, and turn their success into proof for the next customer. You spot risk early, and find the next use case before the customer asks for it. 

You also open new doors: cold and warm outreach into accounts that look like your best customers, from first conversation through close.

You lead with AI from the front. It shapes how you plan, how you engage and what you say in every customer conversation. Agents do the research, monitoring and first drafts; you decide what matters and where to push. The outcome is growth: more ARR retained, more expanded and more pipeline created, earlier and more predictably.

Why now: Aiven has ambitious growth plans, and we're on track. Every customer we serve is building AI, and AI depends on the data platform underneath it. Our open source based platform means no lock-in, so builders ship
